Abstract

The article in a broad historical and etymological context of Slavic and Nakh languages considers the part of their basic vocabulary (according to the various lists known today) which the author attracts to prove the existence of the concept of Slavic-Nakh language union. As a result of the made analysis, the author establishes the unreliability of the corresponding facts and impossibility of their attraction to the proof of the existence of the considered language union.
